Sobre este artículo
Manuscript (apparently autograph) in form of a diary. Dated Marzo 1687 Venetia. On March 5, 1684, Austria, Poland and Venice formed the Holy League, all pledging to fight the Turks and not to conclude any separate peace agreements. The bulk of the war fell to the Austrians.The The Turks were defeated in 1685 at the Siege of Neuhaesusel and at Gran. They had controlled Budapest since 1541, but the Austrian victory September 2, 1686 ended the second siege of this city. This war lasted until the Treaty of Karlowitz Jan 26, 1699, marking the suppression of Turkish power in Europe and the cession of lands to Austria and Poland. This present manuscript is a copy of the report from Vienna, Warsaw and areas in between by Antonio Fiordimassi, the Venetian ambassador to the Imperial Court, on the conduct of the war in Hungary and the Balkans The dispatches were written at weekly intervals between August 26, 1684, and October 27, 1686 and provide a detailed and likely unrecorded account of the Austrian campaign. None of the major collections of Venetian ambassadorial reports include the present text including Alberi, Fiedler, Pribam and Barozzi-Berchet. Written in Italian in neat, easy to read, cursive script on both sides of page. Large octavo (6 x 7-3/4 inches) , 451pp., vellum over boards, red morocco label mounted on spine with title stamped in gilt. From libraries of Frederick North, 5th Earl of Guilford, and of Sir Thomas Phillipps (recent ownership papers are available.) In Very Good plus condition with lovely color end papers.
